DG Solicitors

Has anyone had any experiences with DG solicitors?

I have two HSBC debts with them both around £8,000. They have written threatening legal action I know they are part of HSBC and I just wondered if anyone had had their debt passed from DG to another debt collection agency?

I have enough to offer them a full an final on one of the debts but wondered if I'd be better off waiting for it to be paased on?:p

  • I can offer them 35% but I know that DG solcitors is part of HSBC and that my offer is more likely to be accepted if it is passed on.

    Just wondering how likley it is to be passed on from an in house solicitors to an agency?

    I've had a letter from them this week saying if I get in touch I might only have to pay as low as 70% (I owe around £5k). I can't even afford that but I've offered around 30% in my reply.

    I haven't made a payment on this for over a year, so I don't think they pass the debt over very quickly Goodfellas. :confused:
